Hi Guys,
So I would like to address the issue last week,
It was never my intention to make the start of my story so much like Mimi1239's Seven Years in the Nineties. So I did message her and talked about it. Also, those of you who have been asking me about a 'Fight' Between us there was no fight, her and I are cool and I hope that our readers can be too. I also decided to update on Mondays so my updates won't clash with hers. There will be no Shawn and Maya in this story I have no pairing for her at the moment. I plan to make this story different then hers and Please call me out out if I write something that's similar to hers. I hope that her reader will enjoy this.
Shawn and Cory and Lucas and Farkle were standing by the lockers. Watching a couple make out heavy. ''Richard and Cindy?'' Cory said not being able to believe it and Lucas just shook his head. Stuff like this happened at his school last year and he had be apart of it with Riley it turned out well in the long run.
''Very deeply in love''. Shawn replied.
''Since when?'' Lucas had liked Riley since the start of seventh grade and they were dating, and they weren't sucking face yet he didn't get it.
''Lunch''. Shawn replied.
''What did they eat?'' Farkle asked shaking his head. ''I want so of it''.
''I dunno but it doesn't look like it was enough. Here comes Feeny lets get to math.'' He headed towards his girlfriend and Farkle stood back. ''Aren't you glad that we don't have to worry about any of this who's with who?'' He asked. ''Because we know we have someone?'' Riley nodded and Lucas leaned in and kissed her.
''Let me carry your books''. He took her bag.
''Romeo and Juliet''. Maya said as she walked towards them. ''What up?'' They stopped walking and smiled at they're friend and Maya rolled her eyes at them. '' God can you two tone it town at school?'' Sometime Lucas thought that Maya felt threatened by him and Riley's relationship. Riley did spend a lot more time with him now, he was usually already there when Maya met Riley at the door of the school, and between classes. It wasn't like they did much that would let anyone know they were dating. ''What are you two up to anyway?''
''Just enjoying everyone pairing off''. Riley commented. ''We don't have to worry about a thing''. She said and Lucas smiled at her excitement and Maya rolled her eyes again then she walked away before they could ask her anything. Riley and Lucas didn't notice anything out of the normal they thought Maya was fine.
Health was the only class Farkle and Lucas shared. ''Well Doogens out sick again''. Shawn said as Lucas and Farkle sat down across from them.
'' Heath teacher sick again? Not a lot of credibility''. Cory commented.
''I wonder what kind of creepy sub we'll get today.'' Lucas said to Farkle. ''Remember Mrs smith, the one who had a crush on me?'' Just then a woman walked in she was needless to say hot. But Lucas showed no interest seeing as how he had a girlfriend.
''Wow''. Farkle and Cory said at the same time.
''That is no substitute, that is the real thing''. Shawn said gazing at her, Lucas Rolled his eyes as the three boys oogled at her.
''Good afternoon class my name is miss Kelly, and i'll be filling in for Mr Dooben for the next few Days.'' Lucas doodled a picture of himself and Riley.
''Dude, your lovestruck''. Farkle pointed at the picture. Lucas blushed and rolled the picture up in a ball. ''And so am I''. He sighed. ''Just look at her''.
''No I have a girlfriend''. Lucas said simply.
''Miss smith, on the behalf of myself and Lucas...'' Lucas sighed.
''Farkle sit down.'' Lucas hissed.
''I'd like to welcome you too the class''. Lucas faced palmed.
''Down boy.'' He sat his friend down.
''I'd like to add, stay as long as you like''. Shawn said. Lucas simply shook his head.
''Now, right now you seem to be covering...'' She sorted through the pages.
''CPR and i'm todays dummy''. Farkle jumped up.
''You see thats where your wrong, I am''. They sneered at one another.
''Farkle sit''. Lucas said simply.
''No Moran's we are up to human reproduction''. Lucas sighed. ''Calm your hormones. Can we all be muture about this please?''
''He's a thirty six year old in a thirteen year old body''. Farkle explained. The rest of the class laughed.
''Oh stop being so young''. Farkle said.
''That's what i've been saying!'' Lucas said still doodling. ''I'm not as young as them''. He said.
''Yeah your fourty''. Cory replied. ''Too old for Riley''.
''I've stayed back like fifty times''. Shawn said. Lucas banged his head on his desk.
''How old are you?'' Lucas asked. ''Tell us that.''
''Uh twenty four?''
''Oh really what are you doing in a seventh grade class room?'' She asked him. He watched Shawn to see what he would say.
''I'm a cop''. Shawn explained.
''Really Shawn?'' Lucas shut up after that.
''Sit down''. Mrs Kelly replied.
''All right, but I'm watching you.'' Lucas simply shook his head.
''All right, who can tell us the name of the organ where the eggs are stored Officer? Lucas let out a small laughed.
Oh, sorry, Ms Kelly. I don't have that stuff. I can name the stuff I have, or at least what I call them. Shawn explained.
''All right, the name of the place where the eggs are stored.'' She said moving on.
''Well, the man's got the sperm, and the woman's got the egg. Now, once a month, an egg slides down the Philippine tube towards the uterus.'' Lucas said clicking his pen.
''You seem to have a thorough understanding of the life cycle.'' She said to Lucas smiling.
''Hey, I live it.'' He shrugged.
''Any questions?'' She moved on.
''How do you get a girl to say hi?'' He heard Cory ask from behind him. When they got out of Class, and he got his books out of his locker getting ready to go meet Riley. Two other boys were talking across from him.
''So I was thinking of asking Maya Heart out''. Lucas shook his head. Good luck with that Maya wouldn't go out with A sleeze bag like that.
''Well I'd rather go out with Riley Matthews''. Lucas slammed his locker loudly both boys jumped but then turned around ignoring him again. Lucas had hoped they would get the message but they didn't to his dismay.
''She's hot, totally my type''. The other guy said. ''I'd love to makeout with that.'' Lucas walked up to them and glared at them he wasn't normally like this but this was Riley.
''She has a boyfriend''. Was all he said before walking down the hall. He watched the two boys walk away from him and glare at him Still talking to one another about Riley and Maya.
''I've never even seen you guys kiss, you need to step it up dude before you loose her''. Shawn said walking up beside Lucas. ''Girls still think your single, boys think she's single. This could be bad if you don't act fast.''
''What am I supposed to do?'' He asked. ''Riley and I are already together. Its not like her and I are going to go out with anyone else if someone asks us''.
''Do you like having guys hit on your girlfriend? I'd ask her out if she wasn't with you''. Lucas shook his head. No, Riley would never in any life time go for Shawn nor would Maya. ''You need to act on this''.
''Riley the books missing''. Maya hissed franticly while in us history Mr Feeny was babbling about something they already knew and they weren't listening. ''It must have fallen out when I was sneaking out last night''. The bell rang and they walked out after getting their homework assignment.
''Maya you were sneaking out?'' Riley said. ''What were you thinking? Getting into trouble like that?''
''Riley, i'm not like you guys, I can't settle down easy''. She explained. ''Now where's your boyfriend? I thought he was meeting you after heath class.'' Riley just shrugged as Maya's tone changed a little bit she seemed to perk up at the thought of Lucas not being around them for once.
''He's probably with Cory and Shawn''. She replied. She leaned against the locker. Just then two girls walked by.
''He doesn't like Cory and Shawn, he thinks they're immature.'' Maya replied. ''Because they act like normal 13 year old's and not 60 year old's.''
''Have you met Lucas Friar?'' The red head said. ''What a hottie, he almost beats Shawn Hunter.'' The other girl rolled her eyes and shook her head.
''Nobody can beat Shawn Hunter, but Shawn's not my type he gets bored easy, Lucas is my type''. She glanced at Riley. ''But he has a girlfriend, but its only a matter of time before he finds out hes too good for her''. Maya showed no emotion on her face.
''I haven't even seen them on a date anyway, maybe he's already thinking of dumping her''. Maya rolled her eyes.
''Don't listen to them Riley''. Maya sighed. ''Lucas is crazy about you''. She sighed and again Riley didn't notice They walked down the hall Lucas was standing Where a brunette was flirting with him.
''You know Lucas I don't have a date for frienday night''. Lucas shrugged.
''Sorry Amanda, I have a girlfriend, ask Shawn God knows he'll find room for you''. He turned to leave but she took his arm.
''Oh Come on lucas please''. She begged.
''Amanda I told you, ask Shawn''. He pointed. ''He's right there.'' He walked down the hall. ''Shawn will you go occupy Amanda, she wants a date friday''. He met his girlfriend and put his arm around her Maya at that moment walked away, unnoticed by Lucas and Riley
''I'm already going out with her Friday''. He said ''She totally lied to you so you'll go out with her. Get used to it dude, your going to get that all your life, here comes Mallory you have to reject her now too. Now her, I don't have a date with''.
''I thought you like Maya''. Shawn shook his head.
''I feel like if I asked her out she'd punch me, plus I don't think she's my type. Hitting on girls is what I do Maya just isn't for me. She likes Farkle I can tell''. Lucas shrugged. ''Maya' s jut a friend''. Lucas knew Shawn was telling the truth so he dropped it.
''Maya's not the dating type right now anyway shes not in the mood she's moody all the time now and I don't really know why, she'd rather be home the rest of us have learned to cope with it''. Lucas wasn't coping one little bit, he was good at hiding it. He shrugged.'' Its all you can do''.
''I think Maya seems fine''. Riley commented. This surprised Lucas she was normally so in tune to how her friend was feeling, if anyone she know what Maya's thinking it should be her. Another girl winked at Lucas actually ignoring Shawn Riley looked up at him worried. He shook his head at her.
''Don't worry Riley she's not my type''. He put his arm around her. ''Want to go to the movies tonight?'' He asked her. ''I think people have the mistaken impression that you and I are just friends''.
''Me too, sure sounds fun''. Riley had forgotten she was going to the movies with Maya.
''Maya''. Shawn was looking down at her. Her own best friend had only just remembered that they were supposed to spend the night together, and now she was bringing the cowboy.
''Hi Shawn, I was doing homework'' She lied. He sighed and took the paper from her. ''Give it back Shawn''. She reached for it at he pulled it out of her reach.
''Really? This looks like a escape plan''. He said. ''Your planning to go out the window? Maya your trailer has no window low enough that won't break your neck, I happened to see you almost kill yourself crawling out of it last night.'' He asked her. ''Where are you going to go?''
''I told you its just homework''. She snapped. ''Now drop it.'' She snatched the paper from him.
''You know, you say that a lot latly, it always makes me think your planning to do something. I don't think your friends are onto you yet''. Of course they weren't they were all busy being happy and not noticing that she was upset. ''But I am''.
''Your not on to anything, there is nothing wrong''. She insisted. ''Your wrong about me''. He eyed her.
''No i'm not, when I look at you I see me. I know your planning something Maya, I don't know what it is. But I can tell its not good.'' Maya was alrady in a bad enough mood without Shawn hassling her like this.
''I was doing homework!'' She stuck to her lie.
''Maya, you never turn in your homework, you never DO your homework. you know how I know that? You didn't have a single paper to turn in today, Do you think that i'm stupid?'' Maya just looked at the floor.
''Shawn even if I was planning to run away its not your problem''. She shrugged. ''Don't worry about me''. She stood up. That never worked at home and she wasn't expecting it too now. He would probably go to Riley. ''By the way I do, do my homework''. With that she fled down the hall. She had to be a third wheel on a date and she'd rather be doing that then be here.
''Hey Maya will you_'' A kid was trying to ask her out this could be the answer to her problem but she didn't take it.
''Scram''. She snapped walking down the hall. Not only did she need to find her book she needed to find a place to go.
''Maya come on''. Shawn called after her. She ignored him. She couldn't deal with this now.
Lucas and Riley and Maya found a seat Maya was still sulking and again, Cowboy and his girlfriend were to busy with one another to notice. It was like she wasn't even there. If she walked away they wouldn't even notice because they never did so when she'd sat for two hours through the movie with them, the last thing she wanted to do was go to dinner with them. but she did, she had planned a night with her best friend but she was on a date right now. ''You know what, you guys have fun, i'm going to go home and go to bed''.
''Night have a good sleep''. Maya just shook her head. She spotted Farkle trying to talk up a girl, she decided not to bug him, because she didn't feel as if it was worth being left out again. So when she got home she did the only thing she could think of to do, her homework. She worked for two hours before deciding she couldn't take this anymore. Everyone had adjusted but her and it wasn't normal of fair. She only had a few things in her backpack and she picked it up and picked up the book she had found it outside, Riley's family album was with her. Her Diary was all she had of home and she was happy to have found it because she had traces of her time, Photos, lots of them. She opened it.
Day 2 in the past
Dear Diary,
So today is day two,it wasn't horrible but ever since Riley and Lucas started dating, Riley has forgotten about our friendship. We were supposed to hang out today, but we ended up with Lucas. I ended up as a third wheel so I left. Riley hasn't even noticed I was upset none of my friends have. Its just not like them. But all of them are adjusting and leaving me behind in the dust. I hate my Foster parents I hate this time period and this school I just want to go home. But that's not possible until we find a way.
Until tomorrow
Maya
Lucas was in his room sulking one of the two boys came in and tossed a pillow at him. ''The little one sulking in one room, you in the other. Your bringing down the mood man''. Lucas didn't say anything just tossed the pillow back got up and slammed the door shut. Only to have the other kid walk in.
''Dude are you Okay? Do you even talk?''Lucas sighed.
''Of course I talk''. He snapped. ''I just have nothing to say right now.''
''Look kid, I know how hard it must be, loosing your family, having to live miles away from your home. But you can just sulk around all the time''. Lucas eyed him.
''I will sulk around all I want''. He said as Farkle walked in the room. ''Farkle and I are coping just fine thank you''. His best friend sat down next to him. ''Its my other friend that's not''. He and Farkle just int he bedroom like this for the rest of the night all the four of them needed was one another, but none of them knew how much Maya needed them at this exact moment.
''Lucas, you don't seem to be coping well here at all''. The boy crossed his arms your not fooling anybody with the cover you've put up.
''Riley honey are you done with your homework?'' Her Foster mother asked her. ''Anna and Halley are going to the mall''. Her foster sisters were fifteen and seventeen, Riley highly doubted that they would want to drag her to the mall with them. ''They want to take you with them''. Riley didn't think this was right but she nodded anyway and got in the car with them.
''So Riley, tell us about home and that adorable boyfriend of yours''. She began to talk not listening to her own words. She just wasn't feeling it at this new home she didn't like the father she didn't trust him, and she happened to know Lucas's home wasn't very friendly at all.
Maya put her Diary in her bag she put on her backpack and jumped out the window, causing her to yelp in pain. ''Shawn was right, I can't take two falls like that''. She muttered.
''Of course I was right''. She sighed and let him help her up. ''You don't listen at all do you?'' He asked her.
''I did my homework. I stayed home when I got there.''. She said defensive. ''So yes I was listening.''
''So where are you headed now?'' He asked her she paused.
''Alright fine, you got me there''. She sighed. ''I need to get out of here Shawn''. She said. ''You don't have to keep my secret but for the love of god just let me go''. He sighed.
''Fine, but don't think I won't tell the truth if i'm asked''. He said.
''I wouldn't expect you too''. She said sincerely. ''I'm going to Riley's''. She lied.''Maybe if I show up at her house she'll finally notice me''. She said bitterly.
''What are you talking about?'' He asked.
''Ever since they started dating, Its been all about Lucas and Riley, Riley never has any time for me anymore''. She said. ''Riley used to be my best friend, but now Lucas is her best friend and Farkle's always flirting with some random girl and then there's me, I'm just not adjusting to this like they have Shawn. Lucas is a little more snippy then he normally is, but that's nothing Riley's more Hyper and intense and Farkle is still Farkle.'' She shrugged ''And I'm just me''.
''Maya I think you need to talk to Riley''. Was all he said. ''She probably doesn't even know how you feel about this''. He said.
''When did you get so wise?'' She asked. ''You sound like Cowboy''. She said. ''And Riley's happy, I don't want to disturb that''. She shrugged. ''I'll cope somehow?''
''By running away?'' Shawn asked her. ''How is that coping? Its just running off Maya its not coping at all''. She just looked at him.
''What else am I supposed to do?'' She asked. ''I can't take this anymore.''
''Maya your going to have to until you get to leave, its all you can do''. She just looked at him for a long time before turning and walking away.
Riley so your saying you bailed on a night with your best friend?'' Shawn asked her the next day Riley shook her head.
''We hung out''. She said. ''We are to night to Lucas is coming''.
''Riley, you've got to make time for just you and her, shes feeling hurt and alone''. Riley looked at him.
''Shawn I know my best friend Maya is fine with our relationship, if she wasn't she wouldn't tell me but it would show''. he gave her a look and she sighed.
''Oh no, I've been so busy with Lucas that I've not noticed how Maya was feeling, I shouldn't have invited him to our movie night''. She said to Shawn. ''What am I supposed to do now Shawn, I'm such a bad friend.'' She said starting to pace. ''Shawn i've never been a bad friend, i don't know how to be a bad friend, I don't know how to stop this, what do I do?''
''Riley calm down''. He said. ''Just fix things with her. There she is''. Riley looked at Shawn and then walked up to Maya.
''Why didn't you tell me you were feeling left out?''. She asked her friend.
''Riley its no big deal. Lucas is your boyfriend I understand''. She said. ''Its fine''.
''No its not''. She said. ''I've forgotten about my best friend, Maya i'm sorry I've just gotten preoccupied with Lucas, do you want to have a sleepover tonight?'' She asked. Maya nodded.
''I'd like that''. She replied. ''Thanks Riley''. They hugged and when they pulled away from one another. ''Best friends forever?''
''Best friends forever''. She smiled.
''Will you start picking me up for school again? '' Riley was saying as they walked away. ''I miss that. Lucas just isn't the same''.
''Anything you want pumpkin''. Maya said. ''As long as we get time for just the two of us.''
